2 x Brabantia bin catch replacement 20 30 40 45 50 litre touch bin by

Had trouble closing bin replaced this part works perfect

It's tiny, in fact smaller than you expect. I have a bin that I think is nearly 30 years(?) old and credit to Brabantia that clip worked all that time and the bin is in perfect shape. I remember buying it and it was expensive so proof that quality pays for itself. In writing this, I now feel very old. (BTW just had to do the maths at approx 10 opening/closing of the bin per day that around 110K presses of the Brabantia clip...wow).I checked and the replacement cost for the whole lid was very expensive (shocker). Bought this and installing it sounds way way harder then it actually is. the web reviews made it sound about 500 times more complex.1. get the old one out, i pulled the 'legs' of the old one, it came out and then the whole body of the clip came out. one pliers, 30 seconds done...keep in mind i probably have V1 of this bin (the one made when dinosaurs roamed the earth).2. push fit replacement and it clicks into place.3. close lid, open lid, close lid and enjoy your revitalised bin and the glorious click of a lid secured.3 months or so later, still working fine. Im sure it wont last the next 30 years -- but replacing it every now and then, fine i can live with it.Also i sellotaped the second one so i would not loose it. Unfortunately, it sellotaped somewhere in the house now, that made perfect sense at the time. So put the second one somewhere you wont loose it. It is tiny by the way.but definite recommend to save your expensive bin.

The first one of these I used on my 50 litre bin did not last very long. the lid would not always open or shut correctly. Then when inserting the second one I realised that I needed to ensure no plastic from the one that broke was still inside the slot. Also, it needs to be inserted a certain way. I can't remember which way but I've had the second one in for over 2 months and it has been working absolutely fine.

Great job. Far better than replacing the Brantia and they fit spot on.

Unfortunately, really poor. Really flimsy. Each one failed within a few days use. Although, they look almost identical to other sellers versions, they lack sufficient quality.

Bin was over 24 years old and catch wasn't working, replaced catches in less than a minute thanks to Amazon sending them in less than a day. Just brilliant

Fitted well enough but only lasted a couple of weeks before it started falling out. Now on my second one and will wait to see how long this lasts.

Easy to fit and works as good as the original. These small items will save you buying a new bin.
